Also as crony positions go, usually a better quality of crony for Ambassador and the position is more ceremonial thus less damaged by cronyism anyway. I choose to view it as an escape valve preventing cronyism infecting the more vital bits like the DoD.
I take it you're not happy with the whoremonger who was Ambassador to Belgium the last few years?
Edit: Sorry, alleged whoeremonger
The intuitive mind is a sacred gift and the rational mind is a faithful servant. We have created a society that honors the servant and has forgotten the gift.
